About

Food safety and availability have taken centre stage globally due to the significant population increase since the turn of the millennium. Various preservation and processing techniques have been essential in mitigating foodborne illnesses, reducing post-harvest losses, and enhancing food security, especially in India, where food preservation is a top priority. During World Food India, the Ministry of Food Processing Industries, committed to promoting cuttingedge technologies, strives to foster the development of innovative, value-added products while ensuring food safety and availability. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) actively supports ongoing research and innovation in these technologies, continuously improving and optimizing processes.
